ASF GitHub Bot commented on METRON-1650: ---------------------------------------- Github user jameslamb commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1091 @merrimanr @ottobackwards Hey I think I got this working! See my recent commit. I had accidentally smashed together two commands, which is why node stuff was failing. I was able to get successful builds locally by running the following (after installing Java 8, per recommendations above): ``` mvn clean install -DskipTests -Drat.skip=true cd metron-deployment/ mvn clean package -DskipTests -Pbuild-rpms mvn clean package -DskipTests -Pbuild-debs ``` > Packaging docker containers are too large > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: METRON-1650 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1650 > Project: Metron > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: James Lamb > Priority: Minor > > I have been looking through the project source code, and found that the > packaging docker containers are bigger than they need to be. > The containers' size could be cut substantially by: > * Grouping as many commands as possible into as few RUN stages as possible > * Taking advantage of `yum clean` and `apt-get clean` > * Removing artifacts pulled with `wget` > * Removing unused libraries or libraries only needed at build time (like > `tar` and `wget`) > I am creating this issue but will soon submit a PR to address it. > Thank you for considering my proposal! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
